Hult Reservoir is a 41-acre impoundment on Lake Creek near Blachly in Lane County, offering a public boat launch for kayakers, canoeists, and anglers. The reservoir was created in the 1930s-40s when Hult Dam backed up Lake Creek, transforming the area into a scenic paddling destination surrounded by wetlands and wildlife habitat. Access the launch by heading about 2 miles down Lake Creek Road; parking is available in a designated lot near the water.
This calm-water paddling spot is ideal for recreational boating and wildlife viewing, as the reservoir and surrounding wetlands support diverse fish, plant, and wildlife species. The relatively small size makes it perfect for beginners or those seeking a shorter paddle. For overnight trips, Alsea Falls Recreation Site (a reservable campground) is located within 10 miles, and Richardson Park Campground—offering boat ramp access, drinking water, restrooms, and showers—lies about 30 minutes away for those seeking more developed facilities.
